It’s almost the big day! The first day of school can make any
girl feel like her tummy’s full of butterflies.
We wanna make sure you’re prepped beauty-wise for the big day: Print out
this handy beauty checklist a week before school starts and you’ll be ready for
anything that comes in your way!

A week before school starts...

___Whiten your teeth.
Try Crest’s 3D Whitestrips, Gentle Routine Dental Whitening Kit. If you’re
looking for a budget-friendly way to whiten those teeth, we’ve heard that all
you need are some strawberries and a little bit of baking soda. Mash the
strawberries into a pulp and mix it together with some baking soda. Spread on your teeth with a soft toothbrush
and rinse after 5 minutes. Try no more than once a week!

___Experiment with new school
looks. Have some fun with this! Invest in colorful eyeshadows and
liners. Try to buy as many things as you can with only
$25. Or buy one huge palette with tons of colors like e.l.f.’s 100 piece
eyeshadow palette. Try out a swipe of blue liner, or a greenish smokey eye.
Just remember not to go too heavy for school.

___ Get a new haircut or hairstyle
that screams “I spent my days this summer having fun out in the sun!” (Hint:
ombre hair.)
Plus, getting a haircut gets rid of split ends that can make your hair not look
as pretty.

The night before school starts…

___Decide on a cute first-day
hairdo and makeup. Trying it out beforehand will decrease the amount
of stress you have on the big day (and will make sure you won’t be late for
school!).

___Put a spoon in the freezer
the night before. In the a.m., place the cold spoon on your eyes to
get rid of any puffiness!

___Apply a zit zapper
if you have any pimples (or newly forming pimples).

___Paint toes and fingers.
Play around with new designs—a total conversation starter! We recommend Sally
Hansen’s Nail Polish Strips because you can find the perf pattern to match your
personality and your BTS outfit! For your toes, check this post out for the
perf pedi.
